简介: "Introduction to Databases" was one of Stanford's inaugural three massive open online courses in the fall of 2011 and was offered again in early 2013. January 2014 will mark its third offering. The course includes video lectures and demos with in-video quizzes to check understanding, in-depth standalone quizzes, a wide variety of automatically-checked interactive programming exercises, midterm and final exams, a discussion forum, optional additional exercises with solutions, and pointers to readings and resources. Taught by Professor Jennifer Widom, the curriculum draws from Stanford's popular Introduction to Databases course.
